Y’know, we’ve been doing this podcast for a while and it occurred to Mike that, hard to believe as it might be, there could be folks out there who might be wondering who we are and why anyone would want to listen to what we say. After I stopped my hysterical laughter at such an absurd notion, I realized that, like the top of his head, Mike has a point. Who are we? Why are our opinions so vitally important? It’s possible that people might actually be interested in a brief summary of what makes us tick and what makes us go “Huygleflamdoof!” (so many, many things make us do that). So here, at the request of none, is a short, special episode where Mike and I discuss ourselves, our love of movies, and why independent film discussion might actually be something that matters. Enjoy!

I am responding to Mike’s comments about Supergirl. I happened to join my husband on the couch in front of the TV for a few minutes (not long enough to know what he was watching). There was an ad for Supergirl, and was impressed enough to say “That’s a movie I’d like to see.”
My husband was understandably shocked. He said that I had to remember that, as a Superhero Movie it would be violent and loud. “Oh,” I replied, “I didn’t think about that.”
I think I was caught by the lead actor’s expressive face, and ignored the noise and violence of the preview. Given my otherwise disinterested attitude toward movies, the experience was novel!
So, Mike, is there indeed a significant amount of noise and violence?
